Jlanley, of Maine, left Republican national headquarters this forelioon fur his home. National Committeemen N. K. Scott. General Powell Clayton and General McKlnley Osborne are still, however, at head quarters and will be there until the linal closing. Committeeman Scott received the following telegram this morning from Governor Bradley, of Kentucky: Kentucy has certainly Bone for McKln ley and will Just as certainly be counted. W. O. Bradley. This despatch removed all doubt as to the blue grass state and there was great rejoicing when It was received. The Democratic state headquarters are almost deserted. Chairman Elliot Danforth and James C. Truman, chair man of the state executive committee, have given up their rooms. The only person at headquarters was W. G. Mc Laughlin, who is Treasurer William R St. John's assistant. Air. McLaughlin. like Mr. St. John, has cheerfully ae- ; copied the result of the election and ! acquiesces philosophically In McKln- I ley s election. HOPE FOR TENNESSEE.

Complete figures upon which may be based cer tain results of the election In Tonnes- i see may not be available for three or four days, but those already received Indicate Keptibltcan success, though the Democrats claim the slate by S.ouo. Both sides are playing a waiting game In sending in returns. Joslah Patter son, sound money Democrat for con gress, has mandamused the sheriff of Fayette county, where wholesale frauds are reported to such an extent as to give earmark, free silver Democrat, for congress, a majority on the face of the returns in this district. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 6. Leslie, the last of the missing counties, give Mc Klnley 841 plurality. ,Thls indicates that the state Is Republican by be tween 600 and 700. Yankton. 8. D., Nov. 6.

At 11 o'clock tonight South Dakota's vote on presi dential electors Is tied and an ntTlical count will be required to determine the result. Republican congressmen and governor ran ahead of the electoral ticket by several hundred votes so far as heard from and they may have safe majorities. . DELAWARE RETURNS. Wilmington, Del., Nov. C The counting up of the returns for this county was finished by the men on the adding machines at 7.H0 o'clock this evening. No disorder occurred after 3 o'clock this morning. The sheriff had a big force of deputies on hand all day to keep the crowds out of the court house. The result of the counting showed that the Flynn people for sher iff, had his vote much reduced as com pared with the llgures given out by the lretlon officers after the polls closed. The last count showed he had but 1K2 plurality against 1,021 returned by the election ofllcers. The result in the state on president now stands: Mc Klnley MA-.,2; Bryan lfl.fil."; Palrm r IT6; Levering ti02. McKinley's plurality 3.SP.7. James C. Shaw, a McKlnley elector, whose name had "sr." added on one ticket In New Castle county, was count ed as two men. but his vote in Kent and Sussex counties gave him more than the lowest man on the Democratic ticket and he is elected. LATEST FROM KENTUCKY. Louisville. Ky., Nov. 6. As the offi cial returns come In tonight the stat" ment is confirmed that the electoial vote of the state Is going to stand 12 to 1. It will take the official count to sat isfy both sides. The last newspaper figures place McKinley's plurality in the state at C33. Knsp and Smith, the first electors on the Republican and Democratic ticket, respectively, are running ahead of the other electors on the official count and no matter which way the state goes the electoral vote Is going to be divided; that Is. If the Re publicans carry tho state ticket they will get 12 electors and the Democrats 1 and vice-versa If the Democrats win. This results from the fact that a largo number of voters placed the cross oppo site the name of the first elector In stead of under the party device. The canvassing board has ruled in these cases that the vote should count only for one elector, notwithstanding the evi dent Intention of the voter. CONTESTS WILL FOLLOW.

Nov. 6. fntll the votes cast last Tuesday are officially declared it Is not probable that any further changes will be made In the list of rep resentatives elected to the 5th con gress sent out by the United Associated Presses. Whatever may be the result of the canvass of the votes, it is evident that a number of contests before the house to establish claims to scats alleged to have been fraudulently withheld from those rightfully entitled to hold them, will be made The letter from Mr Brady, read at Republican headquarters today before Chairman Hanna and several members of the committee .opens the way for a half a dosen contests from Virginia alone Representative Pasiah Patterson, of the Memphis, Tenn., district, a gold Democrat, has, according to reports sent out from there, already entered noon a contest to prevent his recent antagonist, 8.

Atlanta, Ga., Nov 6. Senator Ben Tillman, of South Carolina, who was here today on his way home from Chi cago, declared that Bryan would be the nominee of the Democratic party in 1900. "The battle has been the most heated and hardest fought political contest in our history and the Democratic party has never shown to better advantage." said Senator TUImun "The issues have been clearly defined and bravely sus tained while our great leader, Brvan. has covered himself with glory and Is the ideal of the Democratic masses. "The natural alliance of the south and west, though not complete, has received un Impetus which cannot be stopped or prevented The Issue of financial reform and restoration of the money of the constitution Is not dead and will not down. . "We have broken the solid north, while the south is practically solid. The tyranny of the federal judiciary and the greed of the plutocrats will drive the masses by the million to our sup port in the next great struggle. Jeffer son lost his first battle In 1796, but won In 1800. The Republican party was overwhelmingly defeated in 1858 and Lincoln was defeated for the senate in 1S"!, but he was elected president In 1S60. We will win in 1900. McKlnley cannot give relief or restore prosper ity unless the law of supply and de mand, as It affects money, has been repulsed." . "Will the policy of the party leaders look to conciliating the gold Demo crats?" "No; they have got In the party to which they belong and are a good rid dance. There can be no step back ward. The southern people and. the eastern Democrats are separated by an impassable barrier. They are our task masters, and we know that we have turned to the west and must look and work in that direction. If the Demo crats had put up a gold platform, we would not have carried a single state. The men who suggested the gold stan dard, voted for McKlnley almost solid ly. There may be a spasmodic rise in prices and a resumption of business ac tivity, but It cannot last." "What do you think of David B. Hill's future?" "Hill's a dead duck and will never again rise to the surface," was the em phatic declaration of Senator Tillman. MAJOR M'MNLEY DECLINES. Cannot Attend Hie Numerous Dinner Pnrtirs I ndcr Hay. Canton, O., Nov. 6. A delegation of prominent Cincinnati men came to Canton late this afternoon to invite Major McKinley to be present at the annual dinner of tho Commercial club of Cincinnati, on tho 19th of Novem ber. Major McKlnley received his Cin cinnati visitors in the library, and af ter they were comfortably seated, Mr. L. Anderson the spokesman, addressed some very witty remarks to Major Mc Kinley and urged him strongly to visit Cincinnati. Major McKlnley thanked his callers heartilv in compliment of their visit and for the Invitation they bore. He assured them It would give him great pleasure to go to Cincinnati, but that he had considered the matter of visiting large cities pretty carefully and decided that with the exception of a brief period he is to sjiend in Cleve land ie will not leave Canton till lie goes to Washington. Major .McKinley explained that some of his Chicago friends had urged him with' creat vehemence to visit their city and said C. N. Bliss and others were coming out to nsk him to visit New Yolk. He said if he Went to Cin cinnati he would also have to gu to the cither places and he would there fore be compelled to decline the Invita tion. Major McKlnley feels that he has a vast amount of labor to perforin be fore the fourth of March and he does not at to lose lime or strength In going about the country Unless the health of .Mrs. McKinley should demand a chanse of air he will adhere Jo his determination to remain in Canton now as rigidly as he did before the elec tion. HORRIBLY BURNED. Terrible Fate of Mt: William Car penter, of .New Castle. New Castles. Pa. Nov. 6. Mrs. Wil liam Carpenter, of Ciawford avenue, was almost roasted alive tonight. She was Just recovering from a severe ill ness and was sitting alone before an open grate when she fell over on the grate bars. When found shortly after ward she was lying with her mouth across the hot grate bars, both lips wen; roasted and part of the flesh clung to the Tars w hen she was re moved, er face and neck were horribly burned, and her hair was nearly all singed off. Physicians say that If she had not In haled the fumes from the hot coals there is a possibility that she may re cover, but the chances are against her. She Is about 30 years of age. .Xonle Scott Defeated. Denver. Col., Nov. . o. B.

BIMETALLISM IS STRENGTHENED Before the Dawn of IttOO He Expects the tiold Standard Democrats to Become Members of the Silver Party aud That They Will Joiu in the Dem ud for Free Coinage at the Ratio of IS to 1. Lincoln. Neb., Nov. .-Vllllam J. Brvan this afternoon gave out the fol- i lowing statement to the blmetallists of j the United Slates: Conscftms that millions of loyal hearts I are saddened by temporary defeat I beg ! to offer a word of hope and encouraue- mem. No ouu.e ever had supporters more bravo, more earnest and devoted, than those who espoused the cause of bimetal lism. Thev foiiKht from conviction and have foiiKht with all the seal which con viction Inspires. Kvents will prove wheth er they are right or wrong. Having done ihilr duty as they saw It they have noth ing to rcgrvt. The Republican candidate has been heralded as the advance agent of prosperity. If his policies bring real prosperity to the American people those who opposed him Will share in that pros uei'itv. 11'. on i ho other hand, his bolides prove an Injury to ihe people generally, ihose of his supporters who do not belong to tb- oflice hulding class, or the priv ileged classes, will suffer In common with these who opposed him. The friends of ! bimetallism have nni been vanquished; they have simply been overcome. They I believe that the gold standard is a ron i spiracy of the money changers against the welfare of the human rare, and uniil convinced of their error they will con ; timte the warfare against It. The contest I has been waged this year under great i embarrassment and against great odds. I For Iho first time during this generation public attention has been centered upon I the monev ourstion as the paramount Is sues, and this has been done In spite of all attempts upon the part of our opponents to prevent it. The Republican congress held out the delusive hope of Internation al bimetallism, while Republican leaders labored secretly for gold monometallism. Gold standard Democrats have publicly advocated the election of the Indianapolis ticket while they labored secretly for the election of the Republican ticket. The trusts and corporations have tried to ex cite a fear of lawlessness while they themselves have been defying the law und American financiers have boasted that they were the custodians of national hon or while they were secretly bartering aay the nations financial independence. But In spite of the efforts of the administration and Its stiporters; In spite of the threats of money loauers, at home and abroad; in suite of the coercion practiced by cor porate employers; in spile of trusts and syndicates; in spite of an enormous Re publican camnaign fund: and in spite of the influence of a hostile daily press, bi metallism has almost triumphed In lis first great fight. The loss of a few states and that, too, by very small pluralities has defeated bimetallism for the present, but bimetallism emerges from the contest stronger than it was four months ago. COMPLIMENTS THE COMMITTER. I desire to commend the work of the na tional committee which have joined in the management of the campaign. Co operation between the members of dis tinct political organizations Is always dif ficult, but It has beeir less so this year than usual. Interest In a common cause of great Importance has reduced friction to a minimum. I hereby express my per sonal gratitude to the Individual mem bers, as well as the executive officers of the national committee of the Democratic, Populist and Silver parties for their ef ficient, untiring and unselfish labors. They have laid the foundation for united success and will be remembered as pio neers when victory Is at last secured. No personal or political friend nc?.l grieve because of my defeat. My ambi tion has been to secure immediate legis lation rather than to enjoy the honors of office and, therefore, defeat brings to me no feeling of personal less. Speaking for the wife who has hared my labors, as well as for myself, I desire to say that We have been amply repaid for all that we have done. in the love of millions of our fellow citi zens, so kindly expressed. In knowledge gained by personal contact with the peo ple, and in broadened sympathies, we find full compensation for whatever efforts we have put forth. Our hearts have been touched by the devotion of friends and our lives shall prove our appreciation of the affection of the plain people, an affec tion which we prize as the richest reward which this campaign has brought. In the face of an enemy rejoicing In Us victory, let the roll be called for the next engagement and' urge all friends of bi metallism to renew their allegiance to the couse. If we are right, as I believe we are, we shall yet triumph. Until con. vlnced of his error, let each advocate of bimetallism continue the work. Let all silver clubs retain their organization, hold regular meetings and circulate literature. Our opponents have succeeded In this campatKii, and must now put their theor ies to the test. Instead of talking myste riously about "found money" and "an honest dollar" they must now elaborate and defend a tiiianclul system. Every step taken by them should be publicly considered by the sliver clubs. Our cause has prospered most where the money Miicstlon has been longest discussed among the people. During the next four yen is It will be studied all over this na tion t veil more than it has been studied iu the ;ast. PREPARING FOR 1900. The year VJt"J Is not far away. Before thut year arrives, international bimetal lism will cease to deceive. Before that year arrives those who have called them selves gold standard Democrats will be come bimetalllsls and be with us or they will become Republicans und be open ene mies. Before that year arrives trusts will have convinced still more people thut a trust is a menace to private welfare and to public safety. Before that year ar rives the evil effects of a gold standard will be even more evident than they are now and the people ready to demand an American financial policy for the Ameri can people will join with us In the imme diate, restoration of the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the present legal ratio of l'i to 1. without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation.

It Is the general Impression In this vicinity that the manner In which the unknown man whose body was found In the woods near Tenafly on Tuesay afternoon by Frank Van Sciver. a son of Constable Van Sciver, met his death will never become known. The murder and sui cide theories are still being discussed. An Inquest will be held by Coroner Ricardo of this place tomorrow evening, and the opinion is thtt the verdict will be that the man came to his death In a manner unkno-wn to the Jury, Those who are Inclined to uphold' the murder theory say that if the man committed suicide he would have the knife with which his throat was cut about him. They also say that it is Improbable that he would have stripped himself. On the other hand, the people who think the man committed suicide say that he could have walked a consider able distance after he had cut h throat and thrown the knife away before be ing overcome from the loss of blood. They say that the fact that a pile of rubbish was found but a short distance from the body, one piece of which was a brown cloth, evidently part of a pair of trousers, shows that the man burn ed his clothing before cutting his throat, and the finding of the shoes, they con tide, strengthens the suicide theory. The body had evidently lain where It was found several weeks before it was discovered. It was badly decomposed and unrecognisable and has been buried by the coroner. THE CASTLE CASE Prosecution Has Bees Withdraw and Light Sentence to Be Imposed. Washington, Nov. 6. Secretary Ol ney received the following cablegram this afternoon from Ambassador Bay ard regarding the Castie case: London, Nov. 6. 12.40 p. m. Olney, Secretary, Washington, V.

A pamphlet will be Issued here to morrow morning saying that most people will be pained and surprised by the sentence Imposed on Mrs. Castle. There was a complete absence of mo tive In her offences, and the medical testimony might fairly have prompted n nominal sentence. THIRTEEN LIVES LOST. Terrible ResulU of a Colllsioa ia the Harbor at SL Jonas The Tiber Rung Dowa a Schooner. St. Johns, N. P., Not. . The steam-" er Tiber, Captain Dellsle, bound for Sid ney, left here at seven o'clock tonight. Fifteen minutes later, when Just be yond the entrance to the harbor, she col lided with the schooner Maggie, bound from Honavlsta Hay for St. Johns, with a cargosiof fish and lumber. Thirteen lives were lost. The schooner carried se crew of nine and fourteen passengers, five of whom were women. The schoon er had her lights displayed and there was no justification on the steamer's part for the collision, because the night was clear and the schooner quite near the shore In a part of the entrance where steamers rarely iro. The shock of the collision was awful. The schooner was struck amidships, cut In two pieces and sank Instantly. All aboard were on deck. They were thrown Into the water and those saved were only res cued by the help of the floating deck loads of lumber. Several were caught under the sails and dragged down with the sinking vessel. Others were unable to keep afloat until the rescue boats ar rived, and dropped off the planks. Two men climbed up the steamer's sides and seven were saved by her boats. One woman was also saved, making ten souls saved. The other thirteen, nine men and four women, were drowned. Captain Blundon's wife, who was bring ing her consumptive sixteen-year-old boy to the hospital at St. Johns, was drowned, though her husband had her on a plank. The boy was saved. The captain's brother and nephew were also lost. Two passengers named Hallo way, brother and sister, were drowned, as was also James Power and his wife. Seven widows and thirty-three orphans is the result of this catastrophe. The accident happened within half a mile of the town. The steamer lay st anchor while it sent a boat ashore to land those saved. The police are arnnglng to cause the arrest of the Tiber's captain on the charge of hianslaughter.

ACTIVITY AT PITTSBURG. . Pittsburg, Pa.. Nov. 6. Greater ac tivity is apparent in the Industrial in stitutions since Wednesday . than at any time during the year. Every mill and workshop in Pittsburg is operat ing more actively, or is preparing to start Monday. A number of depart ments which have been entirely idle or operated spasmodically since the summer shut down, will be in opera tion next week. The only Industry which has not yet felt the thrill of re viving confidence is window glass.
